According to US Code Title 18, Section 2384, a seditious conspiracy involves two or more people conspiring to overthrow or put down by force the US government. Seditious libel and speech involve written or spoken attacks on the government, but not necessarily a conspiracy to overthrow it. Treason involves aiding or comforting enemies of the US during wartime.
